Here, we continue our discussion of perhaps the most misquoted and abused passage in the entire Bible, which is found in Matthew 7:15–23. People typically cite these verses to prove their assertion that the professing Christian, that does not produce enough fruit in their lives to prove that they are one of the elect, will be cast away from Christ at the final judgment. Such a interpretation unnecessarily terrorizes the average Christian since they always wonder if they will be one of the ones cast into hell on account of the fact that they have an illusory or spurious faith. Here, we demonstrate that such an interpretation is not what the passage is at all talking about.
